75% of Kids Who Die From The Flu Weren’t Vaccinated

Still pondering the vaxing vs not vaxing question?  Here’s a new study that just came out 2 weeks ago. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention researchers found that at least 75% of the children who DIED from having the flu between 2010 and 2014 had NOT been vaccinated with a flu shot.  Hmm. That means that 3 out of 4 children died because their parents didn’t protect them. 

Brendan Flannery, an epidemiologist with CDC’s influenza division, said “This is more evidence for the flu vaccine providing protection against disease and the severe complications that lead to (flu-related) deaths.”

It’s time to get our kids vaccinated!
